Appendix:Ruby and Sapphire walkthrough/Section 3: Difference between revisions

[[Dewford Town]] is a small town in the south sea, isolated on its own island. <br> Visit the house closest to the pier, and the guy inside will give you a {{DL|Type-enhancing held item|Silk Scarf}}, which strengthens {{type2|Normal}} attacks. <br> Talk to the fisherman near the Gym, and answer his question to get the {{DL|Fishing|Old Rod}}.  You can only hope to hook {{p|Magikarp}} and a few {{p|Tentacool}} with this, but at least now you can fish!

[[Dewford Gym]] is the second Gym you'll encounter, and specializes in the {{type2|Fighting}}.  {{t|Flying}}- and {{type2|Psychic}}s will have the easiest time here, so try out your {{p|Taillow}}, {{p|Wingull}}, or {{p|Ralts}}.  When you first walk inside, the building will be dimly lit; as you defeat [[Brawly]]'s recruits, your range of vision will increase.

Follow the lower level to the west, and walk up onto the rock ledge when you see the {{m|Rock Smash|brittle rocks}}. After defeating the next Gym, you'll be able to {{m|Rock Smash|smash}} these boulders to find {{type2|Rock}}s hiding underneath; specifically, this is the only location to find a wild {{p|Nosepass}}. Pick up the {{evostone|Everstone}} hidden on the boulder on the higher rock ledge, and head east for the stairs.
